or drippings, put on parsnips and brown nicely. Dust 
with salt and pepper, or they can be put into a shallow 
pan with the drippings and salt and pepper, sprinkled 
with sugar, and put in a hot oven and browned. 


POTATO BALLS 


Wash, pare, and boil 1 quart potatoes; mash and add 1 
teaspoon salt, 1-8 teaspoon white pepper, 1-8 teaspoon

COLD PACK CANNING—(For Vegetables) 


Use products same day as gathered. Pick over and pre- 
pare as for table use. Wash free of dirt, using a sieve or 
colander and running water if possible. Put vegetables 
in a cheese cloth bag and blanch. If vegetables are too 
large use a wire basket. By blanching is meant plung- 
ing the vegetables into boiling water and keeping it 
boiling during the time that the bag is in the water, Re- 
move and plunge bag into cold water thoroughly. Have 
the glass jars, covers and rubbers rinsed in hot water. 
Set jars in pan of hot water and fill. To each quart add 
Itsp. salt. Fill jars slowly with boiling water, covering 
vegetables completely, put on rubbers and covers par- 
tially sealed. Lower jars into boiler of boiling water 
and sterilize two hours. The water in boiler should be 
deep enough to come two inches over jars. Keep water 
boiling during whole period of. sterilization. Remove 
from boiling water, seal jars tightly. Invert until cool. 
A wash boiler with a removable rack is the most advisa- 


63 


KNOX GELATINE is GUARANTEED to please or money back 


ble utensil to use for cold-pack canning. Instead of the re- 
movable rack wire holders can be procured at very little 
expense. Time required for blanching depends some- 
what upon the size and freshness of product, for the 
smaller vegetables from 5 to 10 minutes and fifteen for 
larger ones. 


EGG PRESERVATION 


LIMEWATER AND SALT BRINE PRESERVATIVE 


Slake four pounds of good quicklime in a small amount 
of water, then mix with four gallons of pure water and 
add two pounds of salt. Stir the mixture thoroughly sev- 
eral times, then allow it to settle. Pour off the clear liq- 
uid. The clear liquid is the part in which the eggs are 
preserved. There is about enough of this mixture to 
preserve thirty dozen eggs, the number depending some- 
what on the shape of the vessel. 


WATER GLASS SOLUTION 


The commercial water glass solution may be obtained 
from any drug store at a cost of about twenty cents a 
quart. Mix one and a half quarts of this solution with 
eighteen quarts of pure water; water that has been boil- 
ed preferable. Stir the mixture until the ingredients are 
thoroughly mixed. A stone jar is the most suitable ves- 
sel for the mixture. Two eight gallon jars are sufficient 
for thirty dozen eggs, using the amount of solution pre- 
scribed above. After the water glass is thoroughly mix- 
ed, pour it into the different vessels to be used, being 
sure that the vessels are absolutely clean. Place the eggs 
in the water glass, see that those at the top are covered 
by at least two inches of the liquid, and cover jars in or- 
der to prevent evaporation. Put the jars in a cool place 
where they will be undisturbed during the year. 
SUGGESTIONS 

Preserve only absolutely fresh eggs; stale eggs will not 
keep in any preservative. Have your preservative ready 
to receive the fresh eggs as you get them. If you are in 
doubt as to the freshness of the eggs, candle them or see 
whether they sink when placed in a dish of fresh water. 
If an egg sinks, it is reasonably fresh.

The KNOX ACIDULATED package contains flavoring and coloring. 


Do not preserve dirty eggs or eggs that have been wash- 
ed. Washed eggs will not keep because the shell has 
been moistened, and dirty eggs will become tainted in 
flavor. Do not use the same liquid preservative more 
than one year. Spring eggs will keep better than sum- 
mer or fall eggs. Infertile eggs are better than fertile 
eggs for preserving. Do not leave eggs in the preserva- 
tive longer than one year. Rinse the eggs with water af- 
ter removing them from preservative. Eggs that are in 
good condition when removed from water glass solution 
will usually remain good for at least two weeks. Water 
glass eggs are practically as good as fresh eggs for all 
cooking purposes. If it is desired to boil them, prick a 
small hole through the large end of shell before placing 
them in the water. The pores of the shell have been 
sealed by the solution and without the pin hole the ex- 
panding air within the shell would burst it.
